The frame wasn't, just like a lot of the components were not. I was assembled and designed in the UK. Only a handful of very early ones were and as far as we know the Formula's as they are custom spec frames.

Hi all wonder if you could help me. I have an old clockwork orange bike in the shed in good condition for a retro but was wondering what year it could possibly be serial no is A2070203.I have looked everywhere but can't find a catalogue of it have asked my dad and he seems to think 1987??? So me being a women I thought you boys might know more than me Dad thanks

Are you sure the 4 isn't actually an A? If so, some of the earlier ones were in that format, with A3 presumably being a department within A. The 1 seems to be the year and the 9 the month, although they all seem to be 9s so that might be in doubt (unless they were all built at the same time, which is quite possible). That would make it a 1992 model.

It is quite possible that a batch was made. Orange was not a high throughput company so frames would be built in batches. Much like the 4 batches of Alu-0's all made in 1991 but also all of a different rolling design change.
